Focus on Germany

Unwinding sensitive products at high speed Kurre Systems, a provider of customer-specific solutions for the cable industry, has developed a new generation of high-speed pintle payoffs. The conventional solution of a spool pick-up with the help of a spool-lifting table is supplemented in the new generation of winders with a particularly gentle product removal. This not only considers the tangential product removal parallel to the spool flange, but also the orientation radially to the spool according to the current spool filling level. The detection of the product position in both directions ensures the optimal position of the delaying pulley. Kurre states that the optimal product guidance ensures that even the most sensitive wires can be paid off reliably at high speeds of up to 2,000m/minute. The new high-speed pintle payoffs are particularly developed for use in solid extrusion lines. With variable product guidance in three directions, retrofitting into existing production lines is possible. Kurre Spezialmaschinenbau GmbH www.kurre-systems.de Progress by tradition

Fillers, ripcords, binders and strength elements

All yarns can be applied with water- blocking or non-wicking coatings. The main products of Max Süss are twisted cable fillers. Textile fillers – mostly from polypropylene, cotton, paper or polyester – are twisted (in round or flat shape) to the exact required diameter (±0.1mm) in a range from 0.5 to 12mm. In addition to twisted filler yarns, Max Süss offers multi-ply ropes in diameters from 1.5 to 16mm. Such ropes are mainly used in drag-chain cables and charging cables as fillers and flexible strength elements. All yarns can be supplied on large bobbins, or even on cable drums, without

Founded in Germany in 1860, Max Süss GmbH is looking back on 160 years of history and experience in the production of yarns, twines and ropes. The company is focused on producing industrial yarns for the wire and cable industry. With new investments in machines and equipment during recent years, Max Süss offers a complete portfolio of textile products required by cable manufacturers. Ripcords are twisted, in various colours, from polyester, polyamide, aramid or Vectran. Binder yarns are mainly produced from low-shrink polyester or other fibres.

knots or splices. This allows high running lengths and decreases the downtime in production for changing the material. All PP fillers are available in flame-retardant and halogen-free versions. Max Süss GmbH www.max-suess.de
